Every week, I see a new study talking about this or that effect of GLP-1 receptor agonists like #ozempic. FINALLY, we have a study evaluating all the outcomes (good and bad) in one dataset. There are some... surprises. 🧵

Hi bluesky prostate folk. Quick question - does anyone know of any papers where a cohort has had both NCCN and CPG prognostic levels assigned/calculated to see how much overlap and outlying there is? Thinking specifically in the intermediate risk groups if that helps.

My heart sank when I heard the news that Felix Feng has passed away. Felix was such a gentle and uplifting force for so many of us who work in the same field - and for anyone he touched. Although he has left us, his impact will be felt forever. ow.ly/Uc3H50TSBiC

"[Scotland] has detected no cases of cervical cancer in women born between 1988-1996 who were fully vaccinated against HPV between the ages of 12 and 13." That's honestly so amazing.
